I don't think I've ever been as disinterested in any character as much as I am in Supergirl.
Every single adaptation of the character has left me completely cold.
Future generations will remember this as the day @Morden Man became dead to me.

But then you'll miss Red Tornado...
No great loss in this case. His live-action debut was a bit underwhelming.
<Snipped quote by Eddie Brock>
I thought they weren't gonna connect it to Flash and Arrow anyway. I might just watch the Flash episode and be on my merry way. Unless I uber like it and then binge watch time (that's what happened with Arrow).
Well, they're separate universes, so it's gonna be a one-time crossover between their Earths.
EDIT: @Vandy I can't help throwing shade. I'm like Cloak that way. Although you can't deny that it is a better Super-family offering. After all, MoS' Kara died in a prequel comic, so we're not gonna see her anytime soon.
@Eddie Brock ugh. I am gonna have to watch that later this month as Flash turns up.
I have only watched episode 1 tbh but wasn't impressed.
The first episode is... rough. Things start slowly trending upwards after that. It has its cringe from time to time, but it's a far better Super-family offering than we're getting in theaters.
It's a sad world where Supergirl's Maxwell Lord is a better Lex Luthor than the one we're getting on the big screen. (Not to disparage Supergirl, either. It's turned out to be a pleasant surprise among DC's live action offerings.)
Spider-Man shouldn't be an Avenger. He just shouldn't. He should bungle the interview or run late Day 1 and get the boot or just turn them down for some prideful reason, but he should never actually make the team. As soon as you put the resources of Stark and the Avengers at his back, Spider-Man loses his underdog status, and that's a tragedy.
@TimeMasterX It just rubbed me the wrong way, I guess. It'd be like if your buddy picked you up to take you "somewhere" on your birthday, and you asked him, "Are we going to a surprise party?" and he said, "What? No! You're crazy, man." Then he proceeded to drive around aimlessly, pretending to go on various errands, before finally taking you to the surprise party and going, "Gotcha!" They just overplayed their hand with the whole, "Oh no! My identity's about to be reveale-- oh look, deus ex machina."
But like I said, the identity mystery wasn't what turned me off. It was incidents like the Absorbing Man fight where they focused more on "Yay, girl power! Down with misogyny!" than telling a good story.

@TimeMasterX I mean, does it count as a spoiler if everyone says, "Hey, is the new Thor ___?" And Marvel goes, "Hah, no!" Then proceeds to drag it out as long as humanly possible before revealing that it was everyone's first guess all along? 
EDIT: @Morden Man, fair. He is a bit of a one-trick pony, voice-wise. It just so happens that that voice works for Spidey, but he tries it with everyone. And he puts Kitty Pryde in everythingggggggggg.

I'm not a huge fan of Morrison.
Charles Soule is great and Jason Aaron's independent work is even better than his work for Marvel. Everyone check out Southern Bastards if you haven't already. I think the nearest to a "favourite" writer I have is Mark Waid. And the closest I have to a least favourite writer is definitely Bendis. I cannot stand him, the way he writes, or the fact Marvel force him onto every single big title.
*quietly hides Ultimate Spider-Man collection*
Jason Aaron had me absolutely hooked with God of Thunder, but the Jane Foster Thor run just got waaaaaaaay too preachy. Maybe it improved, but I only made it four or five issues.
